I like the invigorating feeling this phrase has, it's word-adrenaline.

He is giving the squirrel some very real human characteristics. Assuming a squirrel would have an imagination is almost ridiculous let alone a squirrel becoming self-aware.

I really liked this quote because it was something extremely peaceful that I can imagine. I have spent a lot of time around water and can see this in my mind.

This language sat well with me. I don't know why, but the phrases "set up his wild life" gives me a comforting feeling.

I really like how the author sets this up as a human village. It is interesting to imagine these little creatures setting up their own little village.

This reminds me of when I tried hiking at night without shoes on and you really start to feel the ground beneath you.

This was similar to another one of Thoreau's writings from last week. He discusses men following in their fathers' footsteps again now.

This really resonated in me. I think that it is most likely because I am often up early in the morning and love when the sun starts coming up after the dark. The part that refers to a plastic artist also intrigued me because I really don't know what a plastic artist is.

I like how this quote turns slightly darker than the rest of the writing. I think it adds to the environment that the author is in.

This sentence really confused me, I am not exactly sure of what it is supposed to mean or reference but it is interesting.

I like the idea of "living out of the world." It really isn't out of the world but out of things we all consider to be our world, what makes up the cities we live in.

I really like this little phrase. It's impactful for me, to read your fate. Reading for me is something that is finished but allows you to create your own image in your mind.

There are so many "pretty things" that all of us are surrounded by all them time, like cell phones that take us away from our surroundings.

This is an extremely powerful phrase and it really grabbed my attention. It's not just the past and future but eternities.

In what way could hindrances be positive? Or does hindrance not imply something negative or something that could hold you back.

This language is very provoking for me. Being able to improve time, what does that mean?

This is super relevant today. There are many people who are forced or expected to follow in their father's footsteps, making no progression for themselves personally.
